Johnson Heysed APPENDIX II The following table of our movements or position-at-night is from my skeleton diary. Accident, preoccupations, and prudence were responsible for gaps. My book follows the strict order of time: but leaves out many by-plays. The dates here do not altogether agree with its text. Memory sometimes assists me with moonlight, on a new-moon night: and I have preferred memory to the calendar. (contd ) Jan. Nakhl Mubarak Apr.

These set out the basis for this ‘best text’, derived from Lawrence’s manuscript in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, and the amendments in his master-copy of the Oxford Times proof. In essence, the words used here are Lawrence’s, but the punctuation had to be revised for publication. Also, for the reader’s convenience, many inconsistencies in capitalisation and in the spellings of Arabic words have been eliminated. In addition to those acknowledged in the edition, I am particularly grateful to St. John Armitage for his comments on the Arabic names queried by Hazel Bell during her work preparing the index. I would also like to thank my wife Nicole for her help with the revisions in this new edition. Jeremy Wilson INDEX In Seven Pillars Lawrence frequently provides a surname only. He also claims to have disguised identities, particularly of minor characters. Despite this, comparison with contemporary documents shows that a large number of the names are real. In many instances it has been possible to add further information here, such as initials or forenames as well as rank and regiment. The ranks given, however, are indicative only, since there were many changes in rank, and temporary ranks, during the Revolt. Generally, the ranks given were held towards the end of the war. Place names beginning Jebel (hill) or Wadi (valley) are entered under the second element in the name. Entries entirely in are those given by Lawrence as chapter headings, or running titles in the subscribers’ abridgement of Seven Pillars of Wisdom. The arrangement of material within the entries is broadly chronological. Minor references with no qualifying description are listed in brackets at the appropriate place. Ill., following an entry, indicates that there is a photograph of the subject. Diary, followed by a month and year in the entry for a place name, indicates that the place is in Lawrence’s wartime pocket diaries for that month, see Appendix II.
